Cylinder Block

  1. Using a straightedge and feeler garage, check cylinder block head gasket surface for warpage. If more than .005" (.13 mm) of metal must be removed, replace cylinder block.
  2. Check cylinder bore for wear, taper, out-of-round and piston fit. Machine or replace as necessary. See ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS  tables at end of this article.
